Speaking of cats in strange places, I have a story. (hands peeps teddy bears to hold ’cause sorry, this might be long). I may have told this here before and sorry if I’m repeating myself. A long, long time ago when I still lived with my mom I had this fish tank in which I made a little home for some small lizards I bought. They were really small and very cute. My mom had this cat. The cat was really fascinated with the lizards in their glass tank. One day, I came home and my mom’s cat had somehow managed to get ENTIRELY IN THAT LITTLE GLASS TANK! She looked so strange and it was so surreal to see that big cat in that little tank. She took up all the space in there but there she was, in the tank, merrily messing with the lizards. Happily, I got there in time so none of the lizards got hurt. But it was just such a strange sight that at first I was stunned, then I yelled for my mom to come and see it, then I burst out laughing, and then I took the top off of the tank and got the cat out. I’m still not sure how she got in there

Another time with this same cat, I was preparing some food and I opened up the silverware drawer in the kitchen and that dang cat came bursting out of there with a lot of clinking and clanking and flatware scattering everywhere! Scared me half to death. She had managed to get UNDER the counter and somehow into the drawer. That cat could smoosh herself into anything. She lived to be quite a ripe old age. I (heart) cats!

Saffron: I don’t get it either. I guess it’s because their bones are made of rubber and Velcro. I saw mine the other day out on the back patio. You would think he would be more comfy sleeping in the grass or inside on any piece of soft furniture I have in here. No. He was crashed out on the hard concrete patio hugging my rake. (?!) Huh?!

We can only see the back left of this cage. The cage is to keep it contained. From other patients at vet, from under foot while the humans are cleaning the floor…etc? The grate is to keep kitteh dry, as they REALLY like knocking over their water, food, litter box… Bedding, no matter how cozy, is cold and uncomfortable when wet.

Kittehs are notorious for cramming themselves into tight and uncomfortable-looking places. It’s very possible that the entire right hand side of the cage is covered in luxurious, fluffy thick flannel.

Why are some people so quick to jump to the conclusion that something is cruel or sad when they only see 1/4 of the picture? I just don’t get it. Isn’t life full of enough sadness and bad stuff that we don’t need to create our own? Try looking at the glass as half full once in awhile. Not only will it save your sanity, but the rest of us can just quietly enjoy the qte without getting pulled down by you nuffers.

nina let’s hope it’s a pet store and not a grocery… (dun-dun-duhhhhhnnnnnn)

it is nice tho to see they’ve provided the kitteh with a challenging environment to stimulate its learning instincts. you can practically see the gears turning as she tries all the basic ballet posishes looking for a comfterbuhl that works

i’m a bit puzzled, why the pan on the cup has to be labeled. kittehs can’t read. not at that age.

Here are some flowers for everybody’s Happy Sunday! My computer seems to be on its last legs. *plays Taps* It takes so long to do anything on this stupid thing so I might be signing off until who knows when. But I hope I give you these flowers correctly for your Sunday.

hmmm. do my acute cute sensors detect — a change of kitty in the second video? look at the shade of grey, and the markings. if so, it is just further proof (as if we needed any) that great kittens think alike.

QOD — I shut my poor kitty into an empty kitchen drawer for a whole day once. It had been open, then I (unthinkingly) pushed it shut with my foot on my way out the door. About eight hours later, I couldn’g figure out WHERE the meowing was coming from. It was driving me nuts. No cats outside. None anywhere I could see. Finally, I figured it out, and opened up the drawer. She sauntered out, and OMG did I feel guilty! She was probably about eight or nine years old then, and today she is 20 1/2 years and still going strong.
